The ceremony is scheduled to take place on Wednesday in Washington. Vice President Pence will administer the oath that allows Jones to begin his senatorial duties.

Jones’s family and friends will also attend the swearing in event. 

Jones is the first Democrat in decades to win a Senate race in Alabama, a state that reliably votes Republican. He defeated Republican Roy MooreRoy Stewart MooreSessions goes after Tuberville’s coaching record in challenging him to debate The 10 Senate seats most likely to flip Sessions fires back at Trump over recusal: ‘I did my duty & you’re damn fortunate I did” MORE, who faced allegations of sexual misconduct.

A handful of women publicly accused Moore of pursuing sexual relationships with them while they were teenagers and he was in his 30s. One woman says she was 14 years old when Moore touched her sexually.

While Moore repeatedly denied the accusations, he was unable to overcome them in the December vote.

Jones’s victory will further narrow Republican control in the Senate to a slim majority of 51 to 49.
